# 200-500 mA: At this level, the heart's muscular contractions are so severe that, paradoxically, they may actually protect the heart from fibrillation. However, severe burns and tissue damage are likely, and the risk of cardiac arrest remains high. | # 200-500 mA: At this level, the heart's muscular contractions are so severe that, paradoxically, they may actually protect the heart from fibrillation.

# Over 500 mA: Such a high level of current can cause severe burns and immediate cardiac arrest due to the direct electrical stimulation of the heart muscles. However, if the current bypasses the heart, there is a chance of survival if medical attention is provided immediately. | # Over 500 mA: Such a high level of current can cause severe burns and immediate cardiac arrest due to the direct electrical stimulation of the heart muscles.

Effects on the body can also vary considerably based on factors such as: | |||
* The duration of the shock | |||
* The location of the shock on the body | |||
* Pre-existing health conditions | |||
